Well, MS Office spelling check does wonders for my english...
Anyway chapter 2 is underway (2000 words from planed 6000-7000). I plan to produce at least two chapters/month. I also noticed that pasting from Office removes formating (All ship names are should be written in italics). I will try to correct this when I post chapter 2 on the forum. Below is a extract from the chapter 2:
short extract from chapter 2: Means for the revenge
----------
Present time, 7 jazuras after Argon Pride tragedy
Otto Dahl was not a stranger to Billy’s Place, entire crowd in this dark and somewhat smelly bar knew him and most of them disliked him. Entire sector have heard the stories about him.
More often then not his appearance in the sector coincided with some bad news, like an ore hauler disappearing or some supply convoy being ambushed. He would come with his ship having marks of the battle, gaping holes in the hull from plasma or particle fire. Otto easily deflected enquires from the Station Security, not that the Security bothered to dig too deep as long as the ships of the more important people were not hurt.
Because of this, more experienced miners expected something big to happen soon, because Otto was a sure omen, like vultures on horizon from goners’ stories. One Paranid pilot even made a sign against unholy evil while two tables away group of Borons used their PDAs to hire more escorts for their convoy.
